Pitch deck
Pitch deck to video
A deck without its narrator is half a pitch.
Export the deck to PDF and upload it, or paste the speaker notes. The script step turns slide points into spoken narrative you edit. Choose a presenter and send the video with the deck.
The detail, in plain English
A deck sent cold loses the commentary that made it persuasive in the room. Slide bullets are prompts for a person, and without that person the reader invents their own, usually less flattering, interpretation.
Narrate the arc, not the slides. Problem, what you do, why now, what you want — four beats spoken well beats fourteen slides read aloud in order.
What to do, step by step
- 1Export and uploadSave the deck as a PDF and upload it, so the slide text is read in your browser. Speaker notes can be pasted separately.
- 2Rebuild it as four beatsCollapse the deck into problem, solution, why now and the ask. Do not narrate slide by slide.
- 3Produce and send togetherChoose a presenter, keep it to two or three minutes, and send the video and the deck in the same message.
What this format looks like as a video
| Typical slides | Spoken beat |
|---|---|
| Title, team | One opening sentence |
| Problem, market | The problem, 25 seconds |
| Product, how it works | What you do, 45 seconds |
| Traction, timing | Why now, 30 seconds |
| Financials | Referred to, not read |
| The ask | Said plainly at the end |
A worked example
Worked example (illustration). A 14-slide deck becomes a 2-minute video: the problem stated in two sentences, what the product does, why the timing works, and an explicit ask, with the financial slides left for the reader to open themselves.
What to watch out for
- Never speak projections or traction figures the deck does not contain.
- Deck PDFs extract in reading order, which can scramble multi-column slides — read the draft.
- Do not read financial tables aloud; point to the slide instead.

Questions people ask
How long does it take?
Half an hour, because collapsing a deck into four beats is genuine editorial work. Subsequent versions take a fraction of the time.
Can I change the wording?
Yes, and you will rewrite most of it. Slide bullets are fragments, so almost nothing carries over into speech unchanged.
What does it cost?
Free to make the first one. Founders sending tailored versions to different investors normally sit on Starter £49 a month.
